Scientists at EMBL Rome unveil the mechanism behind the most studied epigenetic modification. The press release including visuals can be found here: https://www.embl.org/news/science/new-insights-into-epigenetic-modifications/
‘DNA makes RNA makes protein’ is a fundamental principle in molecular biology. The process of gene expression, namely creating RNA from a specific DNA sequence, is tightly regulated in different ways. The DNA itself carries a reversible chemical modification – called methylation – that can influence gene expression.
